Simple question: Do you think fat/obese bosses at work are more likely to bully/abuse their power over guys and gals who are obviously in much better shape than average and visibly demonstrate healthy habits like meal prepping and bringing lunch to work?
I had one very overweight indonesian dude who was constantly giving me grief, loading me down with more work than my colleagues, and nitpicking/micromanaging me much more than them as well. One of my close friends is a 26 year old 58kg female powerlifter and she got a new boss about a year ago who is a 40 something obese single mother and was similarly constantly singling out and actively harassing the powerlifter who is in very good physical shape. We live in China where employee rights are quite weak and bosses can get away with a lot more shit with their subordinates. Anyway, this fat woman made her work overtime every single weekend for 2 months for 0 extra pay and would aggressively berate her for showing up to work at 8:04 instead of 8:00.
What do you guys think? Have you noticed any different or worse treatment if your boss is overweight obese compared to normal weight?
